TO THE RIGHT HONORABLE Sr. THOMAS CAMBELL KNIGHT LORD Major of this famous Cittie of London And to all the Aldermen his worthie Bretheren c.

IT hath euer bin the nature of this honorable famous Cittie matchlesse for her loue and loyaltie in all ages past and present to come behinde none other of the worlde whatsoeuer in dutie to her Soueraigne and care not only of common good but also of vertuous and neuer-dying credit And such hath alwayes bin the indulgent endeuour of her worthie Magistrates from time to time that they would neuer let slip any good occasion whereby so maine especial respect might be duely and successiuely preserued And so much the rather because Plato termeth Magistracy to be the Anchor Head and Soule of any Citty holdeth it for the same thing in any commonwealth as the Heart is in the body of a liuing creature or as Reason in the Soule which being the chiefe and essentiall parts of either the life and existence of the whole is in that power their cheerful motion giues courage and alacritie to all the other partes of the bodie Whereof no better exemplarie rule can be made then the late apparant testimonie of Londons Loue to Royall Prince Henrie appointed by our dread Soueraigne his Father to be created Prince of Wales and Earle of Chester euen now in the assembly of the high Court of Parliament that he might be the twelfte Prince in that Royall creation succeeding those eleuen so long since passed For our Chronicles and Recordes doe name but eleuen that since the Conquest were Princes of Wales Whereof the first was Edward Sonne to King Henrie the third who afterward was King Edward the first he was created Prince at London The second was Edward his Sonne called also afterward King Edward the second and he had his creation at London likewise Thirdly Edward his Sonne being after that King Edward the third but he had his creation at Yorke Fourthly Edward surnamed the Blacke Prince who was Sonne to King Edward the third that conquered France and quartered their Armes with ours he also was created at London The fift was King Richard the second Sonne to that worthie warriour the Black Prince who liued not to enioy the Crowne he had his creation at Hauering The sixt was Henrie the fift eldest Sonne to King Henrie the fourth and he had his creation at London The seauenth was Edward the Sonne of King Henrie the sixt whose creation I read to be at Reading The eight was Edward the Sonne of King Edward the fourth afterward called Edward the fift neuer crowned but made away by his cruell vnckle Richard the third he was also created at London The ninth was Edward Sonne to King Richard the third created at London also The tenth was Prince Arthur Sonne to King Henrie the seauenth who deceassing his brother Henrie afterward King Henrie the eight who was made the eleuenth was also created Prince of Wales and bothe of them at London All these fore-named Princes of Wales were created sollemnely by and in the Court of Parliament except three which were Richard the second Edward the fift Edward the Sōne of Richard the third And those that were created out of Parliament were Princes of hard and disaster fortune For Richard the second was deposed Edward the fifte murdered and Richard the third his Sonne dyed with in three moneths after as a iust iudgement of God for his Fathers wickednes But now our Royall Henrie comming to be the twelfth Prince in this great dignitie and Londons cheefe Magistrate the Lord Maior with his worthie Bretheren the Aldermen hauing very shorte and sudden intelligence thereof after some small consultation vnderstanding that the Prince was to come from Richmonde by water they determined to meete him in such good manner as the breuitie of time would then permit them Wherfore vpon Thursday being the last day of May about eight of the clocke in the morning all the worshipfull Companies of the Cittie were readie in their Bardges vpon the water with their Streamers and Ensignes gloriously displayed Drommes Trumpets Fifes and other Musickes attending on them to awaite the Lord Maior and Aldermens comming No sooner had his Honor and the rest taken Bardge but on they rowed with such a chearefull noyse of Hermonie and so goodlie a shewe in order and equipage as made the beholders and hearers not meanely delighted beside a peale of Ordenance that welcomde them as they entred on the water To beautifie so sumptuous a shewe and to grace the day with more matter of Triumphe it seemd that Neptune smyled theron auspitiouslie and would not suffer so famous a Citties affection to goe vnfurnished of some fauour from him especially because it is the Metropolis and cheife honor of the Island whereunto him selfe euer bare such endeared affection For according to the affirmation of Annius de Viterbo Diodorus Siculus Higginus and Pictonius Neptune being called King or God of the Seas had by his Queene Amphitrita diuers Children and as Bale setteth downe each one of them he made King of a seuerall Island Britayne which himselfe tearmed to be Insula beata he bestowed vpon his fourth but best affected sonne Albion who subduing the Samotheans became sole ruler thereof according to the testimonie of Nicholaus Perottus R●gmanus Philesius Aristotle and Humphrey Lloyd and after his owne name called it Albion Now it is not without good reason to be imagined that in meere loue to his sonnes memorie and for his auncient affection to this Island no blessednes at any time can befall it but it shall receiue some especiall and regardful noate of his fauour But more especially at this time when Heauen Earth Sea and all had enterlaced loue together
